Finance Lead – India

Eide Bailly is one of the largest mid-market advisory, accounting, and consulting firms in the United States. With more than 100 years of history, the firm combines a strong heritage with bold ambitions for future growth. Backed by significant private equity investment, Eide Bailly is accelerating its global delivery strategy, with India at the center of that journey. As we scale our Global Capability Center, we are building a high-performing organization that delivers talent, expertise, innovation, and operational excellence to teams across the US.

We are looking for a finance leader who wants to build, influence, and scale. This is not a traditional finance manager role. You will work directly with the Managing Director and senior leadership team to establish the financial foundation for a rapidly growing organization. You will help drive investment decisions, build scalable processes, strengthen governance, support expansion initiatives, and create the operating discipline required to support significant future growth. If you enjoy creating structure, solving complex business problems, and building capabilities from the ground up, we'd like to meet you.
